Author's Note (As if I haven't written enough)
Well, due to popular demand, I wrote the second chapter to One Last Memento. Most people, whence writing reviews requested me to write a second chapter. To tell you the truth I had never intended to do so. The "He" at the end of the first chapter was originally a typo but now I think it was unique and interesting writing tool for this particular story because as one reviewer mentioned Memento was supposed to be a sort of "world without end." In that vein the "He" at the end insinuated there was something more and it didn't really end but no one really knew what was going to happen. Anyway. Well one day, whilst watching Jupiter Jazz (Cowboy Bebop for those who don't know) my TV messed up and started playing in black and white. I was at the scene where Faye was laying on the couch speaking to Gren and I thought it looked great in B&W (but I like B&W detective noir movies so that's not a surprise.) Then it immediately made me think of Memento. After all it had the black and white scenes in it. So after Jupiter Jazz part 1 finished I quickly began thinking up what I dubbed as part II. When I finished it the next morning I thought it was a little disappointing. But that was to be expected really. The first part was meant to stand-alone and portrays the thought process of Leonard. From the reviews I got it seemed I did a good job despite my own feelings about my work. The second part was written more to portray the plot and the events after the first part of the story. But of course the first part was isolated. What I mean is it took place in one small area. That gave me, as a writer, less need to keep writing about the new surroundings and focus on the characters instead. Now I will not blame any reviewers if I get some bad reviews. I didn't think it was as good either. Besides, my not writing another chapter close to the time of the first one built up the next chapter if, in fact, I ever did write one because it would be more anticipated. This is my own fault. But overall I hope the second chapter was at least a good fic, even if it isn't as good as the first. (note: Just to show you how I feel about it. I didn't think the first was that good either. I don't really think anything I write is good but you reviewers proved me wrong at least in the case of One Last Memento chapter one. Thanks for your reviews and encouragement.)
